8:18 am
the eye of c alt concerns about her well being earlier she said, a social media post seen as an allegation of sexual assault against a chinese politician, had been misunderstood. now a, you and report is claiming north korea used cyber attacks to fund it's nuclear and ballistic missile program. the report says pyongyang stole $50000000.00 of crypto currency in the last 2 years. a separate study says as much as $400000000.00 may have been netted. north korea conducted 9 ballistic missile tasks last month, rob mcbride, now from so this does follow a pattern. we do know that north korea has been accused for years of being involved in all sorts of nefarious international criminal activity as a way of getting much needed foreign reserves to basically let it survive. it has been involved, for example, has been accused of being involved in international narcotics in illegal sales. but
8:19 am
it does seem to have found a lucrative avenue in cyber crime with another report in 2019, for example, from the un suggesting that north korea had managed to accrue $2000000000.00 worth of digital assets in recent times. with the current economic, dire straits that your career is in, it seems as though it's not going to desist from the cyber crime. because, of course, if faced his international sanctions, the impact of 2 years of basically being cut off from the outside world. by the pandemic, it is very difficult to di, economic straits or talk of food shortages in north korea. and as we get into 2022, still the same question of how to deal with those career, especially given this flurry of missile launches, jim anderson is a tech expert and ceo of social flow. he says crypto currencies are not his hardest to trace. as people think in many ways crypto currency as a criminal's dream or
8:20 am
a rogue nation, if you want to look at it that way because it is anonymous and you can't find it. but the very fact that it's not backed by a government means it must be traceable. and so you, for example, us $100.00 bill life if it's got a serial number on it. but good luck trying to understand who has used that $100.00 bill crypto currency, it's actually traceable and your anonymity is dependent on you getting it right every single time. if you're anonymous for a 1000 transactions and you slip up just one time, then all the sudden, not just the transaction you slipped up on every single prior transaction is no longer anonymous. so i think it's a lot less ideal for road nations or criminal than you might think. so when you talk about these exchanges, if i have a crypto currency in an exchange and i have to log in, what do i have to use? i have to use a username and password and that is almost always the biggest point of vulnerability you. you launch a fishing attack against me. i don't really realize that i give you my credentials
8:21 am
. i mistakenly log into what i think is my crypto currency exchange. but it's that, it, it's a server hosted by somebody malicious all the sudden they have my username and password. and within minutes if not, seconds, you know, they can drain my wallet, transfer that crypto current to somewhere else that i can't get. and again it's, it's not backed by a government, so it's, it's very effective once they've hacked and gotten your credentials. and i strongly suspect that that's a big, big portion of how they've managed to do the tax the african union. some is n, e, c o, p, a has finished with a condemnation of the recent wave of military coups. a leaders also called for permanent feats on the un security council. the cold on the host countries went on c, spy with rebels into gripe. muhammad at o has more the to day summit in the see up in capital concluded with a cold for greater africa presentation in the global stage. 70 as of to the creation of the united nations. a you lead us complained of africa was still under presented on the you have security console demanding at least 2 prominent and 5 non
